"But why is the rum gone?"
----

RAH I JUST SAW THE POTC3 TRAILER! :D

...Now please excuse me while I squee into a puddle of sunshine.

Zomgomg! I played it on youtube, and as soon as the opening song started playing; I started doing this strange little jig/dance thing around my Mac.

Me: EEEEEE! <3 Jon, Jana! Look! Piraaaates!
(gets no response)
Me: *makes another valiant attempt to elicit normal human response [ie; springing up and doing similar jig of piratedom around living room] from younger siblings* LOOK! LOOK! *dies of joy* ...WELCOME TO SINGAPORRRRRE!
Jon: *barely glances up* Wow.
Jana: Can you stop playing the Pirates song?

:/ Meep.
[/deflates]

BUT ANYWAY!
After that, I went on a pirate rummage through my closet (my maid isn't going to be very happy. shh.) and found queer doodads which, after some twiddling and tweaking- actually bear eerie resemblance to Jack Sparrow: The Fall Line!
And then I spent some time playing dress-up in front of the mirror and hopping around said mirror to the PotC soundtrack; before I remembered that modern-day pirates actually do have homework. (after which I had to change out of my Jack Sparrow get-up and sit down to mug for Chinese.)

But I'm still wearing all my piratey jewellery and doodads; and my little sister is giving me funny looks because I've been pottering around the house in a beach shirt, Roxy shorts, Jack Sparrowesque mascara, messy hair, and about five necklaces.

WHEEEE.
I can't wait for the PotC premiere. <3 And nothing, absolutely nothing (not even thirteen men dancing on a dead man's chest!) will stop me from getting to that premiere.

...That having been said, I do pity the poor souls who'll be going with me. :/
They shall be duly embarrassed during
1) the opening credits, when Cara stands up in her seat and starts singing along lustily to He's A Pirate. (trilly bits and all)
2) during the movie, when Cara echoes, word for word, "BUT WHY IS THE RUM GONE?", bursts into hysterical laughter, and drains the whole of her Diet Coke in one swig.
3) during the movie, when Cara starts gloating about having a jar of dirt.
4) during the movie, when Cara starts singing He's A Pirate all over again, whenever Jack Sparrow comes onscreen.
5) after the movie, when the end credits start to roll, and Cara starts bawling and weeping about it being the World's End.

Ting! We be hot pirate wenches. :]
And Maxy be Will Turner.
And Seet be Teh Undead Monkey. :/

Err...I mean- ARRRRR.

Now avast, me hearties; Cap'n Jackie Sparrow's off ta finish her hawmework.

...Blitherin' bother.
